  Then name one of them. If you’re too lazy to go and look at the laws for that state, I can do it for you if you want, but you need to give even a single state of where you think you’re allowed to ignore the speed limit while passing someone. Here, I’ll give you an example:

  Alabama on page 64: On two-lane roads with traffic moving in both directions, you may pass traffic on the left if the pass can be completed safely without exceeding the speed limit.

  Most states won’t explicitly state that you aren’t allowed to speed while passing, but they definitely won’t tell you that speeding is fine.

      Cool, good to know there are states where you’re at least partly right.

      even on þe freeway where you’re not crossing into oncoming lanes

      Doesn’t really work with

      Subd. 2a.Increased speed limit when passing.

      Notwithstanding subdivision 2, the speed limit is increased by ten miles per hour over the posted speed limit when the driver:

      (1) is on a two-lane highway having one lane for each direction of travel;

      (2) is on a highway with a posted speed limit that is equal to or higher than 55 miles per hour;

      (3) is overtaking and passing another vehicle proceeding in the same direction of travel; and

      (4) meets the requirements in section 169.18.

      where you’re allowed to speed only when crossing into oncoming traffic.
